It's $8 a month to have her read real news to you, but in a very slow and robotic voice... doesn't sound like the anime voices cuz it lacks personality.
Pretty much like Hatusne Miku, but probably just voicing out text instead of changing tone of actual voice samples.
Trust me, people outside of Japan are not missing out much if they can't get this.
By having personality I mean NOT talking slowly, un-smoothly, and sounding like a robot. You don't have to trust me when I say she sounds terrible; use google translate or something and read what people from Japan are saying on the comment section of the youtube vid I linked.
The whole thing might have worked if they used Ayanami Rei as their character instead of Misato cuz Rei talks like a robot anyway.
I'm curious, is there any video of that thing? If it's a simple image with a bubble for text, it would be lame, but if it's a cel-shaded character that tells news by official seiyu's voice, that must be pretty awesome.
Put the application in JRPG that uses static icons w/text, give it a few classic anime character gestures, as see if its still a waste.
Maybe that's just Cellius is up to: creating a "test" that brings them in some money. The beta version of a bargain basment "Milo" that may eventually respond to in-game conversations.
Mhhhh if i remember well, Cellius was founded with the best Sony/Namco programmers for make stronger PS3 Titles.... wtf is this Cell-Shaded pseudo-game now? -.-
umm some1 care to enlighten me to what this is?
The application is actually free to download but you need to pay a monthly fee for news.
i hope this not what thing to come from Cellius but i'm sure the playstaion father has more up his sleeve for his favorite child
its the beginning i think.
